Matel Motion & Energy Solutions Private Limited has partnered with Honda Power Pack Energy India Private Limited (HEID) to integrate its ePowertrain with HEID’s swappable battery system.
This collaboration aims to provide electric vehicle (EV) manufacturers with efficient and adaptable battery-swapping solutions, addressing key challenges in EV adoption.
Under the partnership, Matel will customize its powertrain solutions to seamlessly integrate with HEID’s swappable battery technology, offering a scalable alternative to fixed battery configurations. The integration will allow original equipment manufacturers to introduce vehicle variants compatible with Honda’s battery-swapping ecosystem with minimal modifications.
Matel specializes in high-efficiency permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) for industrial applications and e-mobility solutions.
Honda Power Pack Energy’s battery-swapping service, Honda e:Swap, caters to electric two-wheelers and three-wheelers, addressing concerns such as range anxiety and long charging times. Its network of swapping stations enables users to replace depleted batteries with fully charged ones, enhancing EV accessibility and adoption.
The collaboration between Matel and Honda Power Pack Energy is expected to accelerate the transition to battery-swapping technology in India, supporting the shift toward cleaner and more sustainable mobility solutions.
